2. Decide 'Thru' or 'Butt' blind

Decide which blind is going to be the 'Thru Blind' and which blind will be the 'Butt Blind'. This is shown in diagram A and B above. Please take not of where the gap will be on the window. Some people like to position the gap so it is less obvious in the room or on the side where not as much sun will enter.

TIP :2

If your corner area requires more than two blinds ie: a sliding door with a corner window, please combine the measuring instructions for 'Multiple Blinds' and 'Corner Windows' for the best results.

Sill Depth

For a reveal fit the depth of the window or door frame has to be taken into consideration. Refer to product specifications for depth required.

House Plans

Window measurements from house plans are not recommended. There are many factors to take into consideration when measuring for blinds e.g. reveal or face fit, depth of the window sill, architraves, tiles, door handles etc.

You can acquire an estimate price using the measurements from house plans but we recommend measuring each window individually to ensure accuracy. Another point to take into consideration builders, architects and window manufacturers normally show window sizes drop before width ie: 2100d x 1500w.

Blind industry standard works the opposite to builders, you must always remember to record your measurements width before drop ie: 1500w x 2100d when measuring windows for blinds.

The same measuring rule applies for multiple blinds as per the instructions above.

For multiple blinds being installed into one window you can mount the brackets back to back.

If your window frame has three equal panels measure the overall distance (OV) and just divide by three.

If your window/doorway panels are not equal simply measure each section one at a time to the centre of panel frames.

The combined measurements that you give should be the same as the overall width. Measuring the drop is the same for all applications, please see instructions above.
